I don't recall one but it won't be too long now we've seen the render.

Yeah, when we see the renders, the miniatures don't tend to be too far off.

Great, thanks guys.

Now, if you'll excuse me.....SQUEEEEEEE!

If those RPG characters are in any way exclusive to the kickstarter, I might have to back it. I haven't been much interested in the RPG so far, but if there's nice exclusive minis, I'll be backing it.

You'll be backing it then - they'll at least be 'exclusive variants'!

Good GENCON writeup here:

Haven't even backed a kickstarter, so it should be an adventure.

I'm surprised they're actually entirely dropping Shasvastii and MRRF from Human Sphere N3. I get that they're reworking them, but it's still a suprorse to see them techinically dropped for a while.

However, I can't wait to see how they redesign the Shasvastii. I always liked them more than Morat but struggled to work up decent lists with them to get interested in playing them.

Depending on the price point I might be backing it too - my friends mentioned starting RPGing at some point and they enjoyed Infinity when we played it so that might be a good place to start.

It might just be semantics or 'lost in translation' but I wouldn't say they've 'dropped' them - just 'delayed' or 'pushed' them to the next book.

They still remain quite playable until then.

In other words, they didn't get EXRAH'D.

They will not show in the book that they were historically present, they will appear in the next one because further work on them is required that does not realistically places them in the time frame the book needs.

They are not been dropped, its just a heads up that they won't show up in the HS rework and people should not freak about it, they will show up in working title "Acheron Falls"

Those female Hunzakauts are really nice looking

You guys forgot to mention the Mobile Brigada boxed set.



Apparently the Halqa are also being removed from HSN3. Hopefully we'll be seeing a brand new box for them once Acheron Falls rolls around, then. i hope they don't look too different from the existing ones.

I'm pretty sure that was mentioned in here:

so technically, it was mentioned!

But anyway, yes, I'm looking forward to that!

I like the MB in firing positions, though I probably only need one for QK.

So no news on the Maghariba this presentation? I had hoped we'd see a render after the cartoon concept art and more realistic paintings previewed last year.

The YuJing Svarlheima sectorial is called "White Banner"

Summaries and such seem to have missed that.

I guess we're all waiting until Doremicon gets home and posts the seminar videos!

The seminar videos are already up on Doremicom's Twitch page:

Beasts of War have copies of the actual slides used, well worth a look

http://www.beastsofwar.com/events/infinity-gencon15-slides/

Hmm, Hunzakut render missing from the BoW slides as well as a lot of other slides like the company growth, terrain wip shots, new office concepts, new purchasable terrain, etc.

And some of the other concept art, the new CA Batroid thingies and the Guijia are missing for example. But those pictures are much much better.

Very much so.

Would definitely recommend watching the videos linked by Absolutionis. I found Carlos' presentation very enjoyable and you get the complete picture so to speak.

CB really brought out the big guns for the con! The new Tohaa stuff is crazy awesome. I have no idea what the alien tiger with guns is all about, but I definitely want one.

I'm wondering what the shoulder mounted gun on the new Batroid is.

It's very reminiscent of the Yan Huo with HRMC and it does appear to have multiple barrels - I'm hoping that it's not a HRMC because those things are becoming as common as muck.

Mind you, the other weapon on the concept art is a Plasma Sniper Rifle, which I don't tend to put in the same grade of weapon as the HRMC.

Plasma HMG..? Maybe..?

Plasma sniper rifle iirc.

The one on the picture that isn't actually on the Overdrone is a plasma sniper rifle, but he also has a different weapon actually attached that isn't named.

That would be hilarious!

I'm one step further along the path to buying CA stuff...

I dunno if it would be too powerful or work even but it kinda makes sense to me with their theme of plasma versions of guns, and Snipers and HMGs are often found on the same units where as a HMC and plasma sniper seem like different classes of weapons to be on the same unit.

And yeah when I get paid I'm ordering some CA.

Here's a clearer photo of the Seraph render from BoW



I love it, but not as much as the original artwork.
